Rooble has left Somalia in a miraculously better state than he found it in. He’s fixed our foreign policy, saved our democracy without Somalia descending into civil war and steered us through significant financial hardship due to beesha caalamka cutting all funds to the Somali government.

The UAE is has a GDP half that of Saudi Arabia. It is also Somalia’s #1 trade partner in terms of imports and exports.

The UAE has very bad foreign policy but it is where our money is. Qatar is too small.

And then you look at the poverty relationship we have with Qatar. Why we risked all the business we have with UAE for them is crazy.

UAE is home to thousands of Somali businesses as well. Alhamdulilah they didn’t punish us economically

Love them or hate them, the UAE run the show in the Horn and the Middle East. Bin Salman is on the throne because of them. Somalia would be wise to remain on the UAE's good side. We have learnt what happens when you make an enemy of them.
